Ol' Bob wrote:The Inn at Lucky Mud is a very nice B&B near Skamokawa, WA. From Exit 42 off I-5 South (North Kelso), it is 42 miles, via SR4 west (Ocean Beach Highway) to our course. It's a great 18 holes with skittish elk and nearly tame deer on the course — no dogs please (the does are soon to have their fawns).

So, if you are north of us, whatever the mile post on I-5 sez, that is how many miles you are from Lucky Mud. The golfing is free but the inn owners ask that you telephone in advance — 360-795-8770.

Yeah, it's definitely Oakway. They just switched to their Summer rates, I believe $7 a round, but it's usually a 3-hour round without hold-ups. It's a beautiful course and the mgnt really takes kindly to us discers. As far as I know, Laurelwood is planning on only being a Winter course and even then, the powers at hand don't seem to receive us very well. Both are great courses though. I would recommend that you hit up Oakway. They've got a nice little beer girl there, too.

Yeah, I understand where you're coming from. For the most part everyone out there has been pretty cool. But there have been a few groups of guys that acted like a bunch of condescending leather cherrios. You've gotta love Dexter though, maybe I'll see you out there sometime soon.

I'm out there most weekday mornings from 7:30-8:30, I end up doing a lot of running cause I got to get from Dexter to LLC by 8:45, I'm glad there are few cops on that road. You'd be shocked how much speed you can get on the downhill side of pleasant hill!

If all you ever do is all you've ever done, then all you'll ever get is all you've ever got

Just droppin' by to say beware of Lucky Mud Inn in Skamokawa. I drove out there to just kind of look and see where it was and the female owner was out on her tractor. I had my young daughter with me. Keep this in mind. We drove past to turn around and she screamed "who the F**K are you" as we drove past, on a public open access road. Seriously? Through the window of a child? I stopped and said we were just on a scenic drive and apologized and she proceeded to scream vulgarities at us and told us to go back to the Effing city. We're local. That woman is nuts!! I just drove off as she was threatening us, me, a 34 year old woman and my 10 year old daughter who were on a public road driving past her property. Looney tunes!!
